[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1992187] Re: hplip not working after install in 22.04, python error
Could not understand how to implement the workaround suggested by Alterbo Donato #4. I would appreciate if you could clarify. But uninstalling the package available at Ubuntu 22.04 repository and installing the package downloaded from HP Developers (https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/gethplip) worked fine for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992187 Title: hplip not working after install in 22.04, python error Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: after upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04.1 (not a new installation): new installation of hplip >sudo apt install hplip hplip-gui Install completes without error.

As a workaround, I managed to get it working with the following changes:

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1992187] Re: hplip not working after install in 22.04, python error
I also had this issue. I had hplip installed as part of my default ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS install. I downloaded the installer from the hp dev website (https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and- printing/install/install/index) and ran the auto installer. The installer installed some packages, and removed the old hplip install. This resulted in a working hplip. I did try reinstalling with apt but it did not resolve the issue. I had to use the installer from the hp website. Best of luck. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1992187 Title: hplip not working after install in 22.04, python error Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: after upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04.1 (not a new installation): new installation of hplip >sudo apt install hplip hplip-gui Install completes without error.
